Join artist, embroiderer, and researcher Helen Sill to create an Uzbek-style tumar amulet, traditionally used to ward off evil spirits and bring good luck.

Using simple embroidery techniques and fabric printing, you'll craft a beautiful small hanging from upcycled materials connecting you to the rich cultural heritage of Uzbekistan.

This hands-on class will help you develop transferable skills in textile arts, design, and printing, all while exploring an ancient tradition.

No prior experience necessary - just bring your creativity!
